Yes. I'm 33 and I'm in the middle of leaving a toxic relationship so staying with DM. I'm a SAHM to two small children, not at school yet or even close. I used to have a career, that's gone. I used to have hobbies, I'm not sure I'll ever be able to enjoy them again. I don't feel like I have a future any more. Just an existence.

I think you should be proud of yourself for being at Uni. DM trained to be a teacher after having her third child at 40. Her quality of life since then has been brilliant, compared to when I was a child. One of the reasons I feel so trapped now is because I already have a degree, and I'm so out of touch with my career now that I don't think I'll be able to get a job in it any more and I can't go back to being an undergraduate without paying full price. So you are on the up and up, I'm sure of it x

Yes.

I am in my 40’s. A single parent - been alone for 10years. Rent, low wages in a career I fell into rather than planned - not what I imagined my life would be and I can’t see anything changing in the near future.
